I watched this anime knowing the glory behind it. I mean, people always gush about this anime not being only cutesy and generic and that it’s much darker than it looks. People also gush about how the world of the anime is stunningly beautiful. Because of these, I went and watched the anime with a very high expectation and with the preconceived notion that this anime is going to extremely great. But sadly, I didn’t find it all that interesting, at least not as much as other people told me so. The biggest drawback to me is that I just find the fantasy world of the anime not as interesting as I thought. The concept of the abyss is pretty great but I’m just not curious enough to know more about the abyss.

Hina Festival is a comedy dominant anime and a very great one too. It’s been a long time since I actually laughed that much watching a series. But with all the abundance of funny moments, the anime also slides in some of the most emotional moments and one of them is when Anzu is forced to be separated from the homeless society she’s grown attached to.

First of all you just have to know that I extremely love this anime. It doesn’t have any heavy plot or complicated emotional romance or even out of the world, nichijou-like comedy but I love it regardless.

My favourite scene in the entire anime has to be when Amano accidentally confesses towards Tendou. The whole scene is pure comedy gold. We have the build up almost the whole episode leading up to that very moment in time. The whole confession thing is set up by different people for different purpose of their own personal importance and interest.

Psycho-pass to me is one of the most intense and thrilling anime I’ve ever seen. Its world building is great, the story element sprinkled with mystery is phenomenal and the characters are well-developed. I really like how Akane develops from season 1 to season 2 and then the movie. She’s a really good and admirable character.

Yep, 12 Days of Anime is just around the corner! If you don’t know, 12 days of anime is the time before Christmas when people post their most memorable anime moments of the year for 12 days straight from 14th of December to 25th of December, the day of Christmas. At least, that’s the original idea. Now, people simply have their own unique ways of doing the project but they keep it anime related.

I actually thought it was from 13th of December until 24th of December and then the next day, everyone will dedicate one post to celebrate Christmas. But I guess it’s doesn’t work that way.

This blog has existed for close to 4 years now. And it’s an anime blog. But I’ve never actually joined the annual 12 days of Anime project. Part of the reason is because I’m a very slow writer so it’s quite hard for me to post everyday for 12 days. However, this year, I’m determined to join it for the very first time. While many people have evolved their ways of doing this project, I’m going to stick with the classic. I’m going to post some of the best anime moments of the year for me. Of course, this is only limited to anime that I’ve seen this year, not anime that is released this year. So, expect some of the older anime to come up in my next few posts. Well, all this while I’ve been posting older anime anyway…

Perpetual Morning hosts this tradition so you can read the details there. Basically, they provide a Google spreadsheet so everyone who participates can give and link the details of their posts there. Every 12 Days of Anime posts will be gathered at one place. It’s pretty cool because I didn’t know this until like 4 days ago.

So yea, that’s my announcement for today. I’m doing the 12 Days of Anime for the first time. Look forward to it and goodbye for now ~
